S3 Ep 24The newsworthy Fox family

E

Hey do you ever yearn for the days before Netflix and streaming? Not just back to the days of cable television... or even the days of the liars clubs. No my friends today we talk about the séance craze that struck the world in the mid 1800's and the people behind this craze. In this episode, we dive into the story of the Fox sisters, three young women from New York who claimed to communicate with spirits through mysterious rappings. Their seances sparked a mass religious movement known as Spiritualism, which attracted millions of followers in the 19th century. But were they really in touch with the other side, or was it all a clever hoax? We'll examine the evidence, the controversies, and the legacy of these remarkable sisters who changed the course of American history. Tune in and join us on our journey to the fringe!in the intro we discussed how AI DIDN'T hypothetically kill its controller, so don't worry about it.Music credit:Cyberpunk Industrial Darksynth - Robot Parts // Royalty Free No Copyright MusicWhite Bat Audio60 min mix of royalty free Vintage JazzFreesound Music

Have you ever wondered about olde timey UFO sightings? You know just the regular stuff like did the UFOs look the same, what did the people of the time think, how did the sightings go?Well don't worry hypothetical person who has perfectly reasonable thoughts, we got you with the great airship flap of 1897.

There's inhabitants that we are going to meet, descriptions of the ships and of course inventors with wild stories claiming responsibility. This one is a fun and wild ride so seatbelts are requested but not required.In the intro we discuss toilet paper and its weird pollution impacting the environment.Music credit:FREE NO COPYRIGHT NATURE SOUND MUSICby: Liborio Conti2 Hour Synthwave MIX - L.A.

S3 Ep 20Razing a lawn

E

You ever drive through the suburbs and wonder why we settled on this perfect batch of green sitting in front of everyone's house? Well let me tell you how we got here with this whole lawn thing. There's some fun stuff and also a guy with a ridiculously epic name. Oh and also I should mention it's awful in just like so many ways. Lets have this chat and look at the weird and horrible world of lawns.In the intro we discuss some spoon bending at only THE PARTY OF THE CENTURY!! LETS DUMP SOME OIL ON THIS CROCHETY OLD LANDLORD!!!

S3 Ep 19There’s a mystery a foot

E

Did you hear about all those feet washing up on the west coast of Canada? It may sound like the set up to a bad pun, but this is serious... so the puns are restricted to the title (and maybe later on in this description who knows). Over the course of a decade 20 feet washed up on shore, most of them in thoroughly described shoes, others in vaguely described boots. This is an issue somehow unique to this part of the world, so what is causing it? well listen and maybe we can share the answer with you. In the intro we make jokes that make less sense when the episodes are recorded in a different anticipated release order (the opener too!). But its still an article about an economist telling old people to commit suicide so its a good listen.

S3 Ep 18Tales of my extinction are greatly exaggerated

E

We had a lot of fun talking about de-extinction last week right? Well what if it turns out some of these extinct boys don't even need to be de-extincted??? that's right they've just been hiding outside of most humans for the last few millennia. Today we are talking about extinct species with sighting well after they were became extinct. And no were not talking about some bugs or things smaller than a human hand were talking creatures with fangs the size of swords (sabers to be precise), and feet large enough that two full grown men can stand inside their footprints. These boys are fuzzy and some of there jaws don't quite open so fast by boy do we love them. Pull you ear chairs and relax while you listen to some big boys gone hidin.In the intro we talk about some recent galaxy discoveries that could rewrite our fundamental understanding of the universe... you know, nerd stuff.Music credits:Voyager - Cinematic Space Ambient music to Meditate or Sleep - Royalty FreeJonny EastonSource:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKinw3NqWFQ1 Hour of Prehistoric Tribal Music No CopyrightIgnite Online Relaxing Musicsource: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouc7yEnR7_8

S3 Ep 17De-extinction

E

Today we took a listeners question and talk about the push to de-extinct animals. We are going to talk about what that is, the pros and cons and the animals scientists and companies are talking about bringing back to life. If that didn't sound appetizing enough for you, we spend a weird amount of time talking about woolly mammoths and their sought after meat. Oh also there's a joke about Japan during the Mammoth talk but I think its referencing an intro topic that hasn't come out yet... Soooo I guess it will make sense in a bit. In the intro we talk about some sexy, sexy math. calm yourselves for this one.

S3 Ep 16Hollow be thy Earth

E

Happy Earth Day everyone, with this holiday comes Earth based fringe topics. We bring you, Hollow Earth. We start with the history of this theory going back to antiquity times (where the best antiques come from!) then we look at the modern iterations of this strange phenomenon up to and including vacation itineraries. We finish off by looking at offshoots of this topic, like maybe we are the interior of the Earth!!In the intro we learned that the machines are coming for the good jobs, like alien hunting. What will be left for us common folk? :(

S3 Ep 15Phobos: more than just a potato moon?

E

Today we take a look through our own solar system and at an often neglected little potato that has like 35 minutes worth of things to talk about. We start this episode off with a few facts about the little guy. We then look at attempts to probe him and the conspiracies that orbit it. Watch for some appearances from our favourite weirdos. In the intro we discuss the relatable Vladmir Putin who may or may not have fallen down some stairs and pooped his pants.

S3 Ep 14Mu-ve over Atlantis, there's another lost continent

E

If a lost continent was a barn animal what sound would it make? MuYou are welcome to use that one at your next black tie affair... should any of our other previous tips fail to work (but what are the odds on that right??). Today we talk abut the lost continent of Mu. First proposed in the 1800s by Augustus Le Plongeon, this is a weird one and lets not pretend we wont eventually wind up in some sort of weird genocide justification (it is weird how often we end up here). come join us in this strange little adventure to a place we like to call the fringe.In the intro we discuss the dark side of bigfoot...

S3 Ep 13Need some small talk? Here are three cryptids

E

In the intro Taylor intrigues us with an article about the fermi paradox, you may remember the Fermi Paradox from another Journey to the Fringe Episode... where we also discussed it. The article discusses being a technologically advanced civilization focusing on messages that are more likely to give you a positive response by looking for planets giving out radio communication that see odd or manufactured rather than put out signals blindly.... and that is a much more brief summary of the article than even the episode Have a listen, give it a read.Onto come cryptids!We've got a really incredible line up of Cryptids; the Loveland Frog, The Hopkinsville Goblin and Vegetable Man. We go through each beautiful, in it's own right, cryptid sighting, genitalia, pointers on small talk and banter for your next dinner party or event, and of course our own opinions.Stats:Loveland Frog, EST 1955, OhioSightings: 3Identifying features: sparking bar device frog face, , 4 ft long, 50 - 75 lbs, lopsided mouth, smells of almonds and alfalfaHopskinsville Goblin, EST 1955, KentuckySightings: 1 (Super rare)Identifying features: Silvery in colour, 3 ft Tall estimated weight withheld, wearing something metalic (could be a suit, could be a loin cloth, could be eye patch), pointed ears, thin limbsVegetable Man, EST 1968, West VirginiaSightings: 1 (Super rare)Identifying features: Body resembles stock of a plant, yellow, slanted eyes, skinny arms, long ears, sickly looking, height and weight also withheld... weirdDon't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

S3 Ep 11Sex, cults, and espionage: the other history of post-war Japan part 3 of 3

E

In this final episode on post war Japan we are going to cover a whole bunch of topics.

E

This is a follow up to our previous episode, and guess what??? No need to rerecord! you get the unfiltered (but heavily edited) story. We take a look the US and its involvement in shaping post war Japan, the part we didn't cover in the previous episode. Oh boy was there some shit going down behind the scenes on the previous episode and we are going to take you behind that curtain. We're talking escorts, drugs, theft, torture, and love?? (if you count love of country). In the intro we discuss the bird flu issue the world is currently going through. It turns out birds ARE real and they are falling ill all over the world. What kind of soup do you feed chickens while they are recovering from the flu? None, you cull them...

S3 Ep 9A brief history of post-war Japan Part 1 of 3

E

So I want to talk about some shady dealings that went down in Japan, and to do that I'm pretty sure many of us need a history lesson. So here it is! Japan like you've never thought of it, let's call this the pre-anime post-ninja period because lets face it we need historical markers.We start this episode looking at the little colonial power that could and some of its impact on Asia that is usually forgotten about. from there we look at all things post war. Starting with the SCAP tribunal that governs the land, it's promise of openness, and then opennesses quick reversal as it seemed slightly inconvenient. Then of course we move to SCAP leaving and ensuring a horrible deal for Japan to have to just put up with the US for a while. At one point a car gets vandalized and the bro inside gets very upset, cops are called... its a lot of fun. Come for the listen and stay because there are two more episodes in this mini-asian excursion!In the intro we discuss shrinkflation! That little known buddy of inflation that pops his head up where you least expect it.

S3 Ep 8Andrew Basiago: former chrononaut, future president?

E

We unfortunately had troubles with our next episode in the Japan series so we have to re-record and that will be out next week. For now though let’s focus on our learned friend Andrew Basiago. Now Andy is an interesting guy, he received multiple degrees and practiced law in the state of Washington for many years never receiving a complaint leading to penalty. Although that isn’t out of the ordinary most lawyers aren’t on record stating they travelled through time for their country and also travelled to Mars alongside a young Barack Obama. Oh by the way he was also told by the powers that be that he will be president in the future. Now this episode is going to be a wild ride and as always we don’t supply seatbelts, so like… hold on or something.In the intro we discuss human dna that is well above our pay grade (most things kinda are since we do this for free). Are humans all that different from bananas? Apparently more than I remember but you should still listen.

S3 Ep 7Japanese warcrimes

E

*TRIGGER WARNING*This episode includes discussion of sexual assault and cannibalism, listener discretion advised, even more than usualJust like the episode, i'm going to start on a nice, happy note! Taylor has that part (the happy part) this week and he tells a tale of cave paintings holding way more information than we ever thought possible! Cavemen, amiright?Onto the good, the bad, the Japan. We do not have a feel good episode this week for you, this week we're talking about how horrible Japan can be? Has been? Either one works, choose whichever you wish.Japan is not all Ningen, ninjas, suicide forests, Haikus and Godzilla it has a surprisingly (to some) really horrible past. There's alot and in this episode Chelsie had to narrow it down to comfort women and Japanese Cannibalism in this episode.First up is comfort woman, Chelsie goes through the when, what, where and how (why not included) to give you an idea of a what the sex slaves of the Imperial Japanese Army endured (AKA Comfort Women). We look at the Nanjing Massacre for set up and then move on to Indonesia and share story shared by Jan Ruff of her experience. Shockingly Japan would largely deny any of it ever happened.Onto Cannibalism, at the hands of Japan of course. We talk about some specific examples like the Kokkoda track, WWII and the Suzuki unit as well as the American Pilots.We know what you're thinking; "maybe they had no other choice and it was a matter of survival" well, we've got news for you! And it is that it was definitely not that. Brief appearance by George H. W. Bush.... we talk about him, he doesn't actually want to be on our podcast. That is an assumption as we never actually asked him.Annnnnnnnyway, Big Gulps huh,?

S3 Ep 6The dark knight (of cydonia) strikes again: Richard C. Hoagland part 2 of 2

E

In this continuation of our look at Richard C. Hoagland we really start to look at some of the crazier things he has done throughout his career. We will cover that time he wrote a book while in jail (also why he was in jail); how he bullied his way into claiming he came up with the plate humanity sent out on the Pioneer Space Probes; his claim that Nasa is both occult and ran by Nazis; his theory of torsion fields which could be used for free energy; that time he plagiarized a 9/11 truthers information for a whole lecture; his claim to have discovered the Abydos Hieroglyph; and that time he got banned from Coast to Coast AM. We also look at what he's been up to recently including his wrestling with technology and claim Star Wars was real! and happened in our solar system! Seriously... enjoy!In the intro we talk about cop city, it is not the fabled utopia for the police, at least if the protestors have anything to say about it. We will catch you up on this crazy story.For those looking to contribute to the Cop City protestors: https://atlsolidarity.org/For those that want to check out that physics forum: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/cronkite-on-hoagland.73131/Music credits:Detective Background Music | Crime Scene, Spy, Investigation | Royalty FreeBy: FesliyanStudios Background MusicSource:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0bRw1faiws&t=420s2 Hour Synthwave MIX - L.A.

S3 Ep 5The dark knight (of cydonia) rises: Richard C. Hoagland part 1 of 2

E

We continue our tour through the notable personalities within fringe communities and this time we are setting our sights on someone who has been part of this scene for close to 60 years, Richard C. Hoagland. In this episode we look at his biography from his start as a young space and science museum curator to his heights of science advisor and speaker which he still dabbles in today. From there we are going to look at the claims he has made and people who have critiqued him throughout his career. This is going to be a whirlwind of a series (there are 2 parts so stay tuned).In the intro we discuss the lovable screw formerly known as Prince Andrew and currently known as British Andy. What kind of shenanigans has he gotten into this time?Don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

Is the Antarctic being guarded by the Military?....!It gets better!UFO Base(s?) & Crash landings where look to Linda Moulton Howe for some stories of high strangeness in snowy continent.Finally, Nazis and the Antarctica, because we know how much you reading this, love a good Nazi conspiracy story, We take a close look at Hitler's frozen base and the Russian documentary that reveals operation high jump organized by Rear Admiral Richard E Byrd had ulterior motives.Legend of the Russian documentary says they encountered mysterious UFO force ending the mission early and ending in many fatalities. Presumably Nazis. Listen for more info.And that about sums it up, w ell not really, you'd have to listen.To start the episode Taylor has another depressing water episode, this time it's second hand human's poisoning our water not our direct poisoning of water this time.

S3 Ep 3Lunar New Year, Lunar Conspiracies!

E

The lunar new year is upon us and werewolves couldn't be further away (timing wise anyways). But I bet you're wondering, the moon isn't fringy... well yeah I never doubted how astute and attractive our listeners are. What is fringy are some of the things people believe about the moon. Is the moon the same size as the Sun?? Is it really a secret spaceship or home to a secret space program??? Are some of our old favourite people going to make an appearance in this episode? Why don't you give this a listen and see!In the intro we discuss birds and their ever present association with the downfall of civilization and Christmas. #birdsarentrealMusic Credit: Space ambience compilation [Copyright and Royalty free]by: Your Life Ambiencesource: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N70idTULbz8&t=23sThe Unknown - Spooky Conspiracy Music (Copyright Free)by: JohnnyDogSource: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrUt8-K8kJs

S3 Ep 2Inn to space: The Robert Bigelow story

E

Welcome back to yet another episode of Journey to the Fringe now playing: Season 3.To pump us up this week as our warm up to the main event, Taylor is sharing a (vaguely) relatable and/or inspiring story of a newly elected congress member George Santos... who lied about everything. It really is everything including graduating, where he's worked and being Jew(ish). We also don't know where he lives or where all the money he has came from... to list only a few mysteries in this here description. Good luck New York state!You're going to need that pump up because this week we're delving into all that is Robert Bigelow, millionaire... or was it billionaire, I can't remember right now. I'm sure it says in the episode.We talk about kid Bigelow's dreams and limitations of heading to space, and what got him to the eccentric m/billionaire status that he became. We look at a couple of major "projects" on the Bigelow time line.First up is the history & happenings of Bigelow aerospace. B.A. develops the Bigelow Expandable Activity Module (BEAM) under contract by NASA and still remains at the ISS to this day, and we also talk about the plans for the inflatable space hotel. What ever happened to that?Next BULLET POINT, Anomalies research. Where we found out how deeply his interest runs. What comes of this interest? The Bigelow Foundation, of course, in which he funded research by Budd Hopkins, John E Mack, Bob Lazar and Linda Moulton Howe. Bigelow also purchases multiple properties (ranches) undergoing paranormal anomalies in order to conduct research, also, Area 2000. A radio show, not a ranch to our surprise. Then there is the National Institute for Discovery Sciences, the infamous NIDS, that studied all things anomalies incl uding cattle mutilations, black helicopters, and more things than UFOS, they even study Skinwalker Ranch. We do talk about Skinwalker ranch, only a little though. Then there's the Bigelow Chair of Consciousness Studies...Wow there's alot to discuss, i'm moving on, time for the next BULLET POINT Consciousness studies this is where we talk about why he developed this interest and what he did with his interest which is basically holding a contest(s) seeking the best available evidence of survival of consciousness...etc, i've been typing for a while now so im just going to end that here.What do we think about Bigelow? You better believe that's also in the episode.Don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

S3 Ep 1A further history of violent strikes

E

We are starting this year off with one of our annual history lessons. This one is on the struggle of the working class to amass rights. Today we will talk about the Thibodaux Massacre and the Vancouver general strike of 1918.The Thibodaux Massacre is the story of newly freed slaves working on sugar plantations in Louisiana. Although the slaves had been freed, the wages and living conditions shared many similarities to their past lives. The workers strike and shit goes down.The Vancouver general strike was only a one day event that was spurred on by the death of Ginger (a local union organizer) but it is an important part of Canadian history and part of a chain of massive strikes that ripped through Canada in the late 1910s. Definitely worth the listen. In the intro we update the story of the underdog San Francisco Police Department banding together and pushing legislation to allow them to kill civilians with exploding robots. We also speculate on other possible markets to sell exploding robots, our answers may surprise you (they will not we picked prisons).

S2 Ep 522022 - A year in review

E

What a year and with all the things that were going on including this podcast!Now between the time these these beautiful little podcast episodes were lovingly handcrafted and then left overnight to rise (not necessary but that's how we get the episode sizes we're looking for) to the end of the year things can change. Well fret not friendly neighbourhood listener for we are here to fill you in on what has changed (Making us the only new source you need! (you're welcome)). What do we have updates on? Well:Steven Donziger has been up to many things what with his courtcase against Chevron and the climate crisis continuing on in it's crisining ways;JFK... for a man that has been dead for the better part of 6 decades surprisingly he has had a busy year;Julian Assange's friends in the media have put together a super group song to send their love down the well (not really... but kinda);British Andy the plucky young 62 year old scamp appears to be having a little spat with his brother which means he's sleeping on the couch... I don't know which but it's not the one at Buckingham palace. Also his armed security is being taken away.The RCMP have finished their commission into Gabriel Wortman's mass shooting... Surely this means there is substantive updates!;Chelsie has decided that Mothperson grew a set and continued on its creepy ways in the Chicago area;Florida's land may be more likely to face substantial property losses in the near future;The Climate change headlines have continued to amass;Kazakhstan's protests have provided some changes to their government; andThe power grids have certainly been an electric topic all over from Ukraine to the US.Sit back have a few drinks and let the last moments of 2022 pass with your best friends Taylor and Chelsie (We are going to show up so if you don't it will be real awkward).In the intro we discuss killer police robots or something. I don't know you can't expect me to remember everything. Just listen.

S2 Ep 50The Big O - Orgone Energy

E

So sex... yup sex... and its not even a misleading start to an intro. We are talking about the magical sexual energy that is throughout the universe. Lets take a step back.This all stems from our episode on the Montauk project where orgone energy was offhandedly included. Well this brings us the story of Wilhelm Reich, a man who was friend and colleague to Sigmund Freud and curing cancer with a box you quietly sit in for hours at a time. its the story of a brave (or mentally unstable) psychologist, who while fleeing from the Nazis made unbelievable discoveries.Wilhelm had quite the life, so why not sit back and learn about the sexual revolution coiner himself.In the intro we have a light hearted discussion of the chemicals likely inhabiting your body and how they got there...

S2 Ep 48The Mothperson returneth

E

Hello! And welcome to Journey, To, The, Fringe. The description where I write down the highlights of what you will be listening to in this episode. On this episode we start off talkin' about Brazil, and what is going on in Brazil that is so Journey to the Fringe worthy? Why it is the confederados! Taylor sheds his new found knowledge with us all enlightening us about the US Civil war and where those who did not want to rejoin the United States went in the aftermath... Brazil, of course! Where, today we can still find the weird subgroup, the confederados, maintaining their presence and never really died after the U.S civil war... it just went to Brazil.Next up the main feature because nobody puts Mothman in the opener. It's Mothman. Chelsie has put together a finely curated list of hair raising sightings from the Lake Michigan area (of the Mothman). We have some fun going through a hand full of these sightings and we discover probably the most important question that you will ever need to ask the passenger of your vehicle; Mothman flies beside the car, do you roll down the window?Other highlights (which probably wont save your life like that driving tip, could also apply to friendships..etc) include; glowing green eyes, nightmares & paranormal activity, the feeling of being watched, screaming, chirping, many discussions about wings, a religious experience, gargoyles, UFOs, Witches, multiple sightings by the same person and comparisons to bigfoot.

S2 Ep 47Living through this again: reincarcation

E

Well this is one of those topics that might not seem like a topic in our wheel house... but here we are... and what's a wheel house? stay tuned to learn all these things on Journey to the Fringe today.Today specifically we are looking at reincarnation, specifically children and there memories from past lives, There are many categories of reincarnation so it is important to limit this category with the above sentence. We are specifically going to look at the researchers, the process and the cases they looked at. Come listen to the stories that this includes!By the way the wheelhouse is the area of the ship where the steering occurs. For some reason, in the 1950s, this term was picked up by baseball announcers and reporters. They began to refer to a batter’s “wheelhouse,” by that meaning the area of the strike zone where a batter swings with the most power. in the 1980s, the meaning of this term extended once again. It came to mean, and still means, an area or field in which a person excels. That was bugging me so I had to look it upIn the intro Chelsie discusses the horrifying potential of butterfly people inhabiting our tornados and doling out buttery justice to some and buttery svaiorness to others.As always don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

Well hello there, would you like to learn some of the fringe historical lore that has shaped and made fringey topics what they be today.. Of course you do, we have people look into these things for us so we can provide you what you desire (or something like that).Today we are looking at the Philadelphia experiment, more specifically the story of how people started to believe a naval destroyer simply vanished from one harbour, appeared immediately in another and then reappeared in the original harbour with grave effects on the crew aboard. I would say more but I already said lots of words, there just all in the episode, so go listen!!In the intro we discuss Beyonce's interest in the JFK assassination and the lack of new records (...well Beyonce's name comes up).As always don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

S2 Ep 44Titoring on believability- the John Titor story

What a treat we have for you this week start to finish.Start is the great disaster of May 2, 1845 that started with a clown who was advertised to sail up the river Bure in a washtub pulled by four geese. It ends in tragedy and I won't be elaborating any more in writing. It's too tragic.Middle and end is the great tale of John Titor. We laugh, we cry, we host a podcast, we travel through time at a regular pace as we listen to the episode as we tell you about John Titor (the time traveller).John's first appearance is on Coast to Coast AM July 29, 1998. Most time travellers chose to call in on the "time line" phone line to Art Bell however, John chose the most time traveller recommended line of communication, the fax. (That's how we know he's legit).John then pops up on an internet forum on the Time Travel institute form and later on the Art Bell BBS forum....The episode goes on. We learn all about John, his 'name', the year he comes from and what it looks like where he comes from in the year 2036, why he needed to time travel including what he was looking for, and some other stuff about the future. You have to listen, i'm not just gonna give you that information.We have a Q & A with John.. well, kind of. We go through some questions that were asked of John on the various forums he posted in to give you a better idea of John as a time traveler, and person. Topics include time travel ethics, mode of transportation, how time travel works, breaking time travel paradoxes, radiation and so on.Towards the mid-middle we look at predictions made by John Titor of what the future looks like. Well we're here in the future and out look not so good. Woops, that was a spoiler. I'll just leave that in... might as well spoil everything, there's also a post office, the glaciers are doing well and what the hell is VR. Happy now?Finally, at the end we look at the possibilities of who John could be and what EXACTLY was going on. The John Titor story is a mystery no more.It's a time travel story for the ages.As always don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

S2 Ep 43A Halloween Creature Feature: Vampires and Horsemen and Werewolves... Oh my!

E

It's getting spooky out there! the air is a little cooler, the branches just sway in a more menacing fashion, our fashion sense just leave our minds as we are forced to prepare for a season which global warming assured me was a thing of the past... I have gotten ahead of myself.Halloween is a safely scary time of year where we allow ourselves to experience the creepy the menacing and the horrific from the a safe an removeable distance. With this in mind we thought it would be a good time to look back at some of these historical but safe scaries for your referencing pleasure. Today we bring you the vampire, the headless horsemen and the werewolf. Rather than spoil it all with words that I am typing now and am too tired to elaborate on, maybe the best way to learn about this episode is to give'r the old listening treatment.in the intro we talk about how one kid's urine addiction got his whole family kicked out of a state park (misleading but accurate in the best ways I promise).

E

Oh hey, that title didn't stop you... that's cool. anyways I guess I should tell you what you signed up for but with your clicking compulsions it seems like you really don't care. Okay I guess we can talk about this whole thing then.Imagine, if you will, that you come across some thing, that shouldn't be.... but you take it anyways. Well sometimes these things have some prior conditions attached and boy howdie are we gonna look at some weird shit (sorry kids). we look at a silver vase from Italy, a dead Egyptian ruler known as Tutt, a diamond of hope, a baseball team that really pissed off goats, and Genghis Khan's truly terrible ends for the world once he's gone.The world of curses is a weird thing. You never know where or when these curses will hit them. So join me won't you for this beautifully terrible situation??We discuss some creepy sexy time (maybe) by ghosts on American Airlines flights in the intro.Musical credit:Haunted House 🎃 Lofi Hip Hop Mix 🎃 No Copyright Halloween Lofi Beatsby lofi geek source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fVRA6XnvYcaeroplane sound by justsoundfx source:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXUIvNi7hQ4MONGOLIAN THROAT SINGING | NO COPYRIGHT | 1 HOUR MUSIC by Musical Discoveries, Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EM1yfL6WG0&t=71s

S2 Ep 41Go to Hell, Michigan

It's another spooktacular Halloweeny episode! But first we must get the important information about protein and pee out of the way. Shockingly all the protein micros you're trying to hit are destroying the environment. Article here; https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/eating-too-much-protein-makes-pee-a-problem-pollutant-in-the-u-s/Enough about that, let's talk about Hell... and also hell adjacent things!Are you nervous about your journey into the afterlife after some questionable life decisions? Well if it's anything like Hell, Michigan it may be just ok. What with the canoeing and kayaking, hell hole bar (1 of 2 restaurants) , put-put, ice-cream, get married, become married (for a limited time), and even get a degree from Damnation university...gift shops! Not quite ready to go to Hell yet? You can still own a piece. gotohellmi.comNext up in our tour of Hell stuff Devil's bridge in Ceredigion, Wales (1 of many, many bridges belonging to the Devil) where the himself Devil makes a deal to retrieve a woman's misplaced cow. There's much more to it than this but that kind of sums it up. Journey with us now to Satan's Kingdom state recreation area, Connecticut. Looking for a cool and nice float down a river in Connecticut, well for $100 for a family of 4 look no further! 4/5 on trip advisor... except for this one that Taylor found. Next up, a couple churches! Churches you ask?! Yes! The first is Frauenkirche in Munich, Germany in which houses the footprint of the Devil and St Mary's in Lubeck, Germany which houses a large slab that was supposedly picked up by the Devil to be hurled at the Church to destroy it, he didn't do that though because he got a wine bar. In both instances the Devil's incredibly good nature was taken advantage of by those pesky humans which kind of makes up sympathize with the devil wink wink.Now venture with us over to Slovenia where we will find more things related to Hell, this time with a cave. This time there is less tricking of the Devil, we were starting to feel bad for him. The cave; Jama Pekel. It's quite steamy given the warm environment in the cave meeting the outside when its cold. The steam combined with spikey stalactites and Palaeolithic human remains found in the save make for pretty sus Hell circumstances. 4.5/5 on Trip advisor, bring cash! Last but certainly not least the Devil's highway, the previously named route 666. The road is hailed as one of the most haunted places in America, with a long, bizarre history of all manner of weirdness, bad luck, inexplicable accidents, ghosts, apparitions, spectres, and various other unexplained phenomena. The road also has an abnormally high number of fatalities.You're in for a good episode!As always don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

*This episode includes discussion of alleged child molestation and suicide, viewer discretion is advised.Do you remember the 80's? cocaine fueled business men suspendering and Raeganomicsing everywhere... at least as far as movies have led me to believe. It was a different time with different problems and today we talk about one of those problems, Satanic Panic. Welcome to a world where every tree has another side where a satanic cult is conducting ritualistic animal sacrifice to influence impressionable kids.We take a look at three of its facets: daycares, Dungeons & Dragons, and music. These were the biggest hit areas and we still today see the remnants of what happened during this period. Take a listen to hear this bizarre history!In the intro we talk about our favourite Brit, British Andy!

This week we're looking at what exactly is making holes at the bottom of the ocean, except it's not exact because no one knows. It's a good thing this is only the opener this week, so don't dwell on it!What we really want to talk to you about this week is Gary McKinnon, you know, the guy who hacked NASA. It was the biggest military hack of all time in which he (Gary) went looking for evidence of flying saucers and extraterrestrial activity. We talk about his version of events and what he found and then we talk about the wikipedia version of events (they differ a little). Then we talk about what comes of all this tom foolery Gary gets up to. This story has it all, hacking, NASA coverups, dial up internet, spreadsheets, a single stolen picture, Gary, threats, accents, UFOs, the shut down of the US military district of Washington network of 2,000 computers, jail, law things, blocked extraditions and SEO to optimize your search optimization for your business!TLDR; Gary hacked NASAEnjoy!As always don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

S2 Ep 36To the Stars Academy of something or other

E

To start us off on this Journey ,, to the Stars Taylor once again hits us with some hard truths so labelled "Poland deploys troops as dead fish pile up in riverbank in toxic disaster" from the Washington Post August 13, 2022. Was the water poisoned? We don't know, apparently you can't test fish cause of death. If you have answers, let us know so we can claim your Zloty.Onto the reason you may or may not have ended up here, perhaps! To the Stars and all the eventual corporations they become and then stop becoming.We start off by taking a look through the website to get a feel for just what we're getting into on t his episode and it doesn't help! We're met with an unhealthy amount of merchandise, followed by an opportunity to invest and many more, very confusing things. The confusing doesn't end there (with To The Stars, not the general host confusion we're all guilty of sometimes).On we forge to the start of To the stars... a record label, then media and entertainment company founded by the one and only Tom DeLonge.To the Stars grows and becomes the media division of a larger holding company; To the stars academy of arts and Sciences founded by DeLonge and THE Harold Puthof, he may sound familiar to you (please see episode: Someone saw it coming: The remote viewers and the government... and while you're listening to old episodes might as well listen to Dinosaur Ghosts as well). Right and Jim Semivan was there too.It was founded as a public benefit corporation by Semivan, Puthof and DeLonge. Better listen for more details on that because i'm not typing that all out here.This new shiny To the Stars Academy of Arts and Sciences is composed of aerospace, science and entertainment divisions. Weird right?After we find out a little bit of the roots of TTSAAS we move on to introductions of the major people that make up TTSAAS which includes some of the people already mentioned. We look at who's involved including the board of directions and extraordinary advisory board and we learn a little bit about each of them.Moving on, we take a deeper look at each of the legs of TTSAAS that make up the giant umbrella tree of works. First is obviously the big money maker; the Entertainment division (To the stars inc.). Next up Science & Aerospace , then the VAULT (Virtual analytics UAP learning tool), and finally the ADAM research project (Acquisition and Data Analysis of Materials). All mixed up in this giant pile of confusion are unknowing materials purchased for research, military colabs, media being put out with both fiction and non fiction components, and box car racer but I don't want to give too much away. You're in for a ride.Not to be missed; Taylor's lawyer jokes. Not about lawyers just lawyery things.As always don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

S2 Ep 34Opposable thumbs are an asset

E

Wild card episode! This week Chelsie has dazzled us with her lacklustre ability to throw together an episode and featured on the menu this week... humanoid.We talk about what makes a humanoid cryptid, who knew opposable thumbs were so important? We also kind of discuss why it's important to have scary cryptid humanoid stories.Cryptids covered include a random mashup of a brief encounter with the Deerman, a regular length Qalupalik encounter, an unnecessarily long Melon Heads debriefing, Matlox, and finally Lizard man of scape or swamp.

S2 Ep 33Five Eyes Burgers and Spies

E

I've been waiting so long to make this episode (partially due to the name I came up with). I welcome you to the most intrusive group you've never heard of: the five eyes?In this group we look at the history of this group, where it traces its roots back to World War 2 and the code cracking collaboration between the US and UK. We then follow it to its expansion to include more countries and its impact during the cold war years and the subsequent war on terror. We finish off with the Snowden leaks and the terrifying implications of this group. I would tell you more but I want to save some surprises for the episode.In the intro we talk about the elusive (but delicious) Columbian hippo. Didn't know that Columbia has hippos?? then better give it a listen!As always don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

S2 Ep 31Someone saw it coming: Remote viewing and the government

E

Have you ever heard someone say a word or phrase and immediately you have a vivid view of that person or place, like you are there??? well then you were either born in the wrong time, or lacking in the charisma department (or some combination of the two) because the government was paying people for skills like this for a long time. Today we introduce you to the history of remote viewing. So get ready this is a ridiculous ride.We start off with the inception of the research into this phenomenon, We're talking Menloe Park (Stanford Research Institute), Uri Geller (Please don't sue) and some weird science (no not the movie, the science!). We look at how this rag tag team of misfits was able to turn a little gumption and can do attitude into a CIA contract!We then look at the life of this project, all the government offices it passes through, the claims it makes, the people it hurt and the friends it made along the way before it was thwarted by an evil Willy. We have some laughs, we have some libations, we have some snacks!! And you should too, you earned it after listening to this podcast episode after all (that's a binding contract now so you gotta listen).In the intro Chelsie finally learns what we all know about cats (and telling you what it is we know will immediately vilify us to half our viewership so I choose to let you listen instead of read.As always don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

S2 Ep 29Russian secrets just below the surface

E

So I know this may be a misleading title, what with the war in Ukraine going on right now... But my intentions are pure! We need you to know about the Unidentified Submersible Objects (USOs) that have been thoroughly recorded by our Iron Curtained friends. No longer do you need to sit up and night and speculate what kinda stuff would a UFO get up to if it went under water.We look at stories from the book Russia's USO Secrets: Unidentified Submersble Objects in Russian and International Waters by Paul Stonehill and Philip Mantle. This book takes an in depth look at many stories of USOs conveyed through military documents, first and secondhand information and as discussed on Russian forums. From the Mundane orbs of light entering and exiting water from a distance, frog like sounds being heard outside submarines, projected maps flashing before sailors eyes, mother ships and swimming humanoids, this episode has a little bit of everything to keep you engaged. This is not a paid advertisement for this book, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and wanted to share it with you all.In the intro Chelsie shares the ramblings of her child which let us delve into the tale of the Bunnyman.

S2 Ep 28David Wilcock - The finale? (part 5)

E

Opening up this weeks episode Taylor regales us with yet another toxic tale this time in regards to tyres (also pronounced tires)Shockingly car tires produce vastly more particles of pollution than exhaust, that's the gist, listen for further details.At long last we have finally made it to the end of our David Wilcock saga. We've laughed, we've cried, we've cringed.In this episode Chelsie picks up where she left off in a big year for Wilcock, he releases the Cosmic Secret with Corey Goode and first we're analyzing the cover art THOROUGHLY.After that we find out about the not-for-profit organization that Wilcock registers in the state of Nevada (please see: Not just a hat racket the Panama Papers) as well as the for profit business Divine Cosmos LLC.On this journey (we said it!) we delve into a great article put out by Vice that analyzes the Wilcock, Goode duo.Into the COVID years David has somehow amassed a large following on social media where he posts with astonishing frequency. His creatively titled: "David Wilcock on the Great Pandemic" has received millions of views and spouts off about the illuminati deep state being responsible for the pandemic that only he can save everyone from. But you must pay! A familiar tactic at this point.We talk about the many "courses" David has put out, we learn about his involvement in the hover car that may never see the light of day (spoiler alert the wings will tuck in to fit in your garage), a divorce and a chipmunk....That and all the juicy details about the cease and desist letters!Last but not least we end this episode on missed predictions and a list of reddit comments about David Wilcock. Love him or hate him, you're in for a treat.Please note that everything being said in this podcast is either our opinion or said by someone else (source material for you below)As always don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.
